Pros

You will have a job and work in a team most of the time. You might enjoy some freedom depending on the type of work you have and how well your boss trust you.

Cons

To get a real raise, you better save a catastrophic situation. You get treated well but mostly as a number. For some reason they don't seem to care about loosing good established employee. Sometime they won't even make a counter offer if you tell them you have been offered something better somewhere else. Seems they think a new rookie will replace you in no time even if he know nothing about the situation where your working.

Pros

The team for whom I worked was great. One of the best.

Cons

Other teams not so much. Herding cats and you end up taking over on an IMC call for something not even in your sphere. I feel they blacklist employees they RIF. I had a great Director try to get me in with other BUs and nothing. He tried again and again. Others who got RIF'd told me the same. Not good. Also, seems people look over their shoulders looking for the Grim Reaper. Not a good way to be. And the higher ups that are in charge of client retention seem to not be the ones on the firing line, only the consultants that did great work for the clients who decide to leave. HR who is supposed to help get another job within the company are worthless. They want you to do all the work. Also, CGI is so big teams only know what they know. Learning other teams' stuff seems to be frowned upon. How can you move around? This login makes you stuck.
